About

Developer and analytical problem-solver based in Kansas City, focused on building systems that turn complex data into actionable decisions. My work spans statistical modeling, software development, and product design — I studied Graphic Design at Virginia Commonwealth University and have self-studied computer science, machine learning, and networking.

I enjoy tackling problems where rigorous analysis and well-designed software can meaningfully improve how teams make decisions. I'm particularly drawn to Bayesian reasoning, systems internals, and AI. Outside of work: chess, fitness, and League.
